While looking at this file, I noticed:
if (!pgpath->pg->ps.type) {
DMWARN("Reinstate path not supported by path selector %s",
pgpath->pg->ps.type->name);
r = -EINVAL;
goto out;
}
The DMWARN will end up following a NULL pointer (as pgpath->pg->ps.type
is NULL). I have no idea how to fix this, nor if its really possible to
hit this error case, nonetheless I thought I'd point this out. (As maybe
someone out there would know how to correctly patch this.)
